Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Fosfomycin primarily for **uncomplicated urinary tract infections (acute cystitis)** in eligible adult patients. When you complete the online medical questionnaire, the doctor reviews your medical history and current symptoms to ensure Fosfomycin is the right and safe treatment for you. They specifically look for:

• Typical symptoms of an uncomplicated UTI (e.g., painful urination, frequent urges, lower abdominal discomfort).
• No signs of complicated UTI (e.g., fever, back pain, nausea, vomiting) which would require a different approach.
• No history of allergies to Fosfomycin or other relevant medications.
• No underlying conditions that would make Fosfomycin unsuitable, such as severe kidney problems.
• Not pregnant or breastfeeding, as Fosfomycin may not be recommended in these cases without direct in-person assessment.

The doctor's assessment is crucial to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Fosfomycin actually does (and doesn't do)

Fosfomycin is an antibiotic specifically designed to treat bacterial infections in the urinary tract. It works by interfering with the bacterial cell wall synthesis, effectively killing the bacteria causing your UTI. Typically, a single dose is prescribed for uncomplicated cases, with symptom relief often starting within 24–48 hours.

It's important to understand that Fosfomycin is effective against specific types of bacteria commonly found in UTIs. It is not a general antibiotic for all infections, nor is it suitable for:

• Complicated UTIs or kidney infections (pyelonephritis).
• UTIs in men.
• Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that might have similar urinary symptoms.
• Asymptomatic bacteriuria (bacteria in urine without symptoms).

Your Hi-Doctor physician will confirm if Fosfomycin is appropriate for your specific condition based on your questionnaire responses.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Fosfomycin can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects are usually mild and may include:

• Nausea, diarrhea, or indigestion.
• Headache.
• Dizziness.

These usually resolve on their own. However, you should seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the following rare but serious side effects:

• Severe allergic reaction (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
• Severe or persistent diarrhea, especially if it contains blood or mucus.
• New or worsening abdominal pain.

Always follow your doctor's instructions and read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication. If your symptoms do not improve after 2-3 days, or if they worsen, you must contact a healthcare professional.
